Renee Graziano, widely known for her role on Mob Wives, showed off a dramatic weight loss on Monday, following her use of the popular medication Mounjaro. The 57-year-old reality star was photographed at the AMC Magic Johnson Harlem theater for the premiere of the film Run, looking notably slimmer in a red dress and silver heels.
According to The Daily Mail, Graziano, who is the daughter of the late Bonanno crime family consigliere Anthony Graziano, is the latest celebrity to credit the medication for her transformation. She has been open about her journey, revealing in May that she had lost 52 pounds.
While sharing updates with fans on Instagram, she said, “I love sharing my weight-loss journey with y’all because truthfully, I’ve been so hard on myself behind the scenes… when I see photos that show the real, visible change—my clear eyes and genuine smile—I have to share. I want everyone to know if I can do it, you can do it!”
Graziano explained that her results came from a combination of weekly Mounjaro shots, supplements, therapy sessions, and emotional work, all without plastic surgery. She admitted, however, that she does still use “a little Botox” and “a touch of lip filler,” adding, “Although I do believe whatever makes you happy and doesn’t jeopardize your life, do it!”
Her health journey followed years of personal struggle. Graziano has been open about her battles with substance abuse, including a near-fatal fentanyl overdose in 2023 that required her to undergo rehab and relearn how to walk. She now credits her sobriety and self-care for not only her physical change but also a renewed sense of confidence.
In a message to her followers, she wrote, “The substantial amount of weight that I have lost really has made me feel and look younger than I have in a long time. My mind is clear, my body has transformed, and more importantly, so has my confidence.”
